Looks like you ended up with some nice figuring in the wood. How does that grip area on the stock feel? I wish I could handle one in person… would it be comfortable for a guy with XXL hands? Normally I avoid “thumbhole” style stocks, but it looks like the “hole“ is nice and open and I really like these Paradigm rifles! 😍

It's dual thumb hole my friend

On the bench the top hole is amazing , using the standard thumb hole is nice too but I can really keep the rifle steady using the vertical one.

Dang - very nice rifle. That bipod is something else - never seen that before. Is it heavy?
Yes sir it is very heavy, it in itself weighs 4 pounds lol its meant for a couple mile plus shots from like .416 and .50 cal bmg powder burners haha

However , it's amazing.


Could launch mortars with it haha

Congrats on the Paradigm. That looks like a serious bipod for sure. How do you like that Valdada G2?
As a friend said to me "I'm living life in 4k" when looking through it.

The turrets, the mag adjust, the parallax soooo nice! FIRM clicks on turrets, super smooth on the others.

The reticle is super nice , gunna take it out to 100 hopefully tomorrow and test more.
 
Wow 👌 that is sweeet set up, love the Valdada bipod. Man that's nice.
What kinda of ammo is that?
Ie. pellet /slug /weight If you wouldn't mind.
(please🤗)
Dang..that bipod is nice!!
The anvil is a thing of beauty, 12 inch foot print and 4 pounds of strong weight up front, I haven't shot with it yet but today I shall. I'm very excited about this setup

Also that's jsb 44.75 at 885 fps
